Initial analysis

The property at 1303 Cedar Ave in the Chestnut neighborhood is a single-unit garage apartment built in 2014 and currently owned by John Taylor. Over the past seven years, the building has generated a relatively low number of service requests to the city, with a total of four documented issues. However, there has been a notable cluster of recent incidents in 2026, with five service requests occurring within a two-week period from early April to mid-May. This recent spike in activity includes two music-related complaints about outdoor commercial venue noise, two requests for alley and unpaved street maintenance, one water conservation violation report, and one garbage-related issue. All of these service requests have been closed, though the concentration of incidents in April-May 2026 suggests there may have been some temporary issues affecting the property's immediate environment during that period.

Risk rating

How 1303 Cedar Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Austin Code enforcement data — code violations, complaint history, Repeat Offender Program activity, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that Austin Code will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

Austin Code rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. Austin Code has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
